Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.
2. The method in claim 1 , wherein the first and second load monitoring areas are cells, location areas, routing areas, or service areas.
3. The method in claim 1 , wherein the first mobile communications network employs a first radio access technology and the second mobile communications network employs a second different radio access technology.
4. The method in claim 1 , wherein the first mobile communications network is a second generation based network and the second mobile communications network is a third generation based network.
5. The method in claim 1 , wherein the adjustment instruction is based on an exchange of load information between a first radio access network node in the first mobile communications network and a second radio access network node in the second mobile communications network.
6. The method in claim 1 , wherein the adjustment instruction is based on load information from a core network node or a central server.
7. The method in claim 1 , further comprising: controlling a rate of change at which the broadcast message is updated.
8. The method in claim 1 , wherein the mobile stations are in one of the following states: an idle state, a ready state, a standby state, a CELL_FACH state, a CELL_PCH state, and a URA_PCH state.
10. The apparatus in claim 9 , wherein the first and second load monitoring areas are cells, location areas, routing areas, or service areas.

12. The apparatus in claim 9 , wherein the first mobile communications network employs a first radio access technology and the second mobile communications network employs a second different radio access technology.
13. The apparatus in claim 9 , wherein the first mobile communications network is a second generation based network and the second mobile communications network is a third generation based network.
14. The apparatus in claim 13 , wherein the first and second set of services are different.
15. The apparatus in claim 9 , wherein the adjustment instruction is based on an exchange of load information between a first radio access network node in the first mobile communications network and a second radio access network node in the second mobile communications network.
16. The apparatus in claim 9 , wherein the adjustment instruction is based on load information from a core network node or a central server.
17. The apparatus in claim 9 , wherein the electronic circuitry is further configured to control a rate of change at which the broadcast message is updated.
18. The apparatus in claim 9 , wherein the mobile stations are in one of the following states: an idle state, a ready state, a standby state, a CELL_FACH state, a CELL_PCH state, and a URA_PCH state.
